More anon Unus Pro Multus, About the Fair. Last Thursday in Washington we wcro bounced by a rich farmer, who is a director and stock holder of the Fair association for not puffing and editorially advertising the Fair. The stock holders of the fair are all well off. There is probably not one who could not buy us out with their epare cash every year. We aro poor and in debt, running an enter priso that is far muro beneficial to the public welfare than any fair ever devised, yot that man would feel nsulted if it were intimated to him, to contributo a moiety of his every day labor in getting subscribers and advertisements for us. But the lloc-ord did advertise tho fair for eight months by publishing the proceedings of tho Board, and probably would still be doing so, but recently they bad printing to do and put it out to tho lowest bidder, and did not notify us. We would even now iko to publish, as a matter of news, when tho fair will lake place, but wo arc not advised, and have never socn any announcement in tho news papers. If the fair association would omit their advertising agency, and divide tho cost among the news papers, they would sooh becomo more popular. Wo w'sh them well, but must have bread and butter before we can advertise them gratuitously; Transfers of Real Estat The following transfers of real es tale, by warrantee deed, were filed for record in the Recorder's offico of Franklin Cofl'nty, for the week end- ng with this issue, and roported by Mr. II.

More anon Unus Pro Multus, About the Fair. Last Thursday in Washington we wcro bounced by a rich farmer, who is a director and stock holder of the Fair association for not puffing and editorially advertising the Fair. The stock holders of the fair are all well off. There is probably not one who could not buy us out with their epare cash every year. We aro poor and in debt, running an enter priso that is far muro beneficial to the public welfare than any fair ever devised, yot that man would feel nsulted if it were intimated to him, to contributo a moiety of his every day labor in getting subscribers and advertisements for us. But the lloc-ord did advertise tho fair for eight months by publishing the proceedings of tho Board, and probably would still be doing so, but recently they bad printing to do and put it out to tho lowest bidder, and did not notify us. We would even now iko to publish, as a matter of news, when tho fair will lake place, but wo arc not advised, and have never socn any announcement in tho news papers. If the fair association would omit their advertising agency, and divide tho cost among the news papers, they would sooh becomo more popular. Wo w'sh them well, but must have bread and butter before we can advertise them gratuitously; Transfers of Real Estat The following transfers of real es tale, by warrantee deed, were filed for record in the Recorder's offico of Franklin Cofl'nty, for the week end- ng with this issue, and roported by Mr. II.
